    I don’t understand, he didn’t provide a reason as to why it’s 2031. Just heard that it could but didn’t eveb attribute it to any company or individual. Did I not read right?

      It’s the authors commentary based on conversations with folks from the industry at CES:

      What I heard on the ground floor from various system integrators, components manufacturers, and other companies, is memory supply has been tied up for all of 2026, and that shortages could last as long as until 2031.

      In a sane world governed by rules, yes… But everyone from the market makers to the banks to the investors to the SEC are complicit in the need for this bubble NOT to burst… It wouldn’t surprise me if the system starts eventually making up numbers out of whole cloth to prevent it.

        You can make up numbers all you want, at one point, someone has to foot the bill. This isn’t something like Tesla stock where people pay insane money for paper expecting it to just become worth more in the future, this is about physical goods that need to be purchased and operated. You can’t just hold it like stock or a fund. It deprecates and needs to turn a profit.

        While operating at a real profit is already difficult enough, the issue sometimes is that they can’t be operated at all, me it because construction gets no permission or the infrastructure just isn’t there.

          On a state level, you can pass the bill onto the plebs. All kinds of ways, honestly, not the least of which is to just print more FICO paper, increase the deficit, devalue our debt-based currency. Slowly, of course, so that we’re taken out by rising prices before most of us can pay off old debt in our inflated dollars. So, it’s not even really you that foots the bill; it’s your way of life at its core.

      SK Hynix is also now thinking about exiting the consumer market.

      There’s going to be a supply chain to rebuild if the bubble ever pops.

      But it won’t. We’re screwed. They now have the network speed and the storage space to steal every file from every user (OneDrive, etc). And now they have AI agents to summarize all of it, solving the analysis issue. Lastly, if you don’t own your own compute, if windows is just a dumb-terminal to cloud services…

      Remember that most businesses are “consumers”. Hell, Microsoft already owns all their accounts and logins now that Entra is live and SharePoint is in the cloud

        They are transitioning away from the bottom 90% of consumers to the top 10%. We are witnessing the beginning of a neo-feudalist transition, and the bottom majority won’t matter anymore.
